Description Ohmygawd!

This so slipped past me!  Either I missed a note or an e-mail or my my poor brain has melted further. 

Anyways, part of the commissioning that I have done involves the fantastic and fast-working who has done my characters before:
and ... The "Stretching Things" versions of my OCs - The Innocent Ricochet Kaboom! and the Mighty PlastiCat!

She is working on ... I believe ... one other with Israfel in this outfit and Caitlynn in her chain mail bikini to help me really get into character better with doing "Skulls and Shackles" and also help inspire me to work on the stories revolving around these characters.

Once again, special thanks to for doing this work for me!  Be sure to pop by and tell her the Princess sent you.  You might consider hiring her yourself.

I imagine when she arrives at a port after off enemies out at sea, Israfel would disembark like this .

What I meant to say was "arrives at a port after fighting off enemies".

Ah ... makes more sense, but the original thought was funny too.

I'm very glad you liked the drawing

Me too, honey! 

I just feel bad that I missed this for so long.  I didn't think it would be posted on your page first (which doesn't matter), but I was awaiting either a note or an e-mail to let me know it was done.  Once again, no biggie, but that's why it caught me by surprise. 

Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

It's ok.  I just thought I was still waiting ... and then when I checked your site, it was there. 

Please!  I would love the honor of seeing the work first.  Then we can post it.  Especially if your work might generate more commissions!

Thanks so much!

I had been debating on doing a story to go along with the picture ... a bunch of the ones that are coming up and going to be posted as time goes on.  Sort of mixing things up with my passion for writing as well as art.

I do writing myself.  makes me want to dust off my old pirate character.  Haven't used him in years.

Thanks, darling!

This is exceptionally close to what I envisioned her to look like, though I had debated on the cloak to possibly be more of a hoodie when she originally got it in the first adventure.  It makes more sense to be a cloak (which is like an open hoodie so it works), y'know like what Sheila wore in the Dungeons and Dragons cartoon.  But instead of it making her invisible, it distorts her appearance to people in combat, making it harder to hit her.

K-POGO In reply to BalloonPrincess [2014-01-02 11:51:37 +0000 UTC]

I gotcha. in D&D terms, the 'Blur' spell.

Awww man, I loved the 80's cartoon, -especially- Sheila. I mean, her animation looks pretty close to what a human Israfel would look like...coincidence?

BalloonPrincess In reply to K-POGO [2014-01-02 20:51:25 +0000 UTC]

I suppose ... it's a Cloak of Displacement. 

Interesting that you have made that connection ... and truth be told, when I was designing Israfel, I was actually looking at a picture of Rei from Evangelion.  I choose the coppery hair since I wanted her to be a redhead, but not quite the intense red Caitlynn is.  The Bionic Forearm mentioned that a few years back and I said that I did not think of that since it had been ages since I had seen the cartoon.  I will admit to really liking Sheila from the cartoon though.

hehe, i think she was my first 'crush' on a cartoon or comic book character. when i got to be about age 10 i was able to read and understand the X-Men comics, and i fell for Kitty Pryde.

BalloonPrincess In reply to K-POGO [2014-01-03 05:31:12 +0000 UTC]

I can understand that.  Kitty was an interesting character, one a lot of us grew up with and watch blossom into a superheroine, sort of like Spiderman did for a few people as well.

I was almost expecting her to be holding a hook in her hand though.

An interesting thought, though she could shape her hand into a hook.
